Watch Episode 2 of Assassin’s Creed Odyssey Behind the Odyssey Series

Ubisoft has today uploaded episode 2 in the Assassin’s Creed Odyssey Developer Diary series called “Behind the Odyssey”. In this episode, we learn about how Alexios and Kassandra were born in Sparta but left at a young age and therefore do not fight 100% like a Spartan but instead have their own unique solo fighting style. There are 30 amazing combat skills to unlock and upgrade, however players can still play most of Assassin’s Creed Odyssey in the shadows if they want to.
